Chapter 275 -274 Intense Battle (Two in One)
“Crack!”
The fiery feathers of two Fire Phoenix Pheasants shattered one after the other, sliding on the ground before colliding with a helicopter, leaving behind twin crimson streaks of blood, their fiery red feathers dancing in the light.
“Fire Phoenix Pheasant!”
Over there, two soldiers had just settled Wei Zi when they witnessed this scene, their teeth gritting in rage.
A heavy fog had enveloped the deck outside the hangar, giant eyes appearing intermittently within it, indifferent and unflinching.
The crew members huddled together, despairing as they watched everything unfold in the hangar.
Even the Fire Phoenix army had been defeated; their last pillar of hope had collapsed.
“Professor Chen, you all need to get out of here!”
Cang Haiyuan and Emperor Penguin stepped forward to shield the scientific expedition team, intently watching the fog and cautiously preparing for the next attack.
The scientific team was in chaos, but without a command from Chen Yixin, they hesitated to leave on their own.
“I will stay with you!” A tall, thin student stammered as he bit his lip and summoned his own pet.
“Ao~”
Cang Haiyuan looked down, almost bursting out laughing.
Beside the tall, thin student’s legs, a round white plump was snuggling coquettishly against his legs, making soft, whimpering sounds.
“A juvenile Greenland Seal, are you freaking kidding me?” Cang Haiyuan said as he pushed the tall, thin student behind: “You all go together!”
The tall, thin student stood there, embarrassed and at a loss.
As researchers, if they wanted to contract pets, they wouldn’t be far off the mark, like this Greenland Seal, which could evolve into an Ice Tusk Seal—a top tier among the ice element creatures.
However, researchers were not combat professionals; their contracting of pets was mainly for research topics or as companions, so regardless of the potential of the creatures, getting into the hands of researchers meant they were essentially retiring early, which is why most researchers’ pets couldn’t fight.
The fog on the deck began to spread into the hangar, hidings tremendous eyes throughout it.
“Professor, we really should go now!” Tang Tang, pale-faced, clutched tightly at Chen Yixin’s sleeve.
Chen Yixin gently freed her hand from Tang Tang’s grip, her gaze fixed unblinkingly on the fog outside the door.
She had set out from Liaodong Port especially for the unknown mutant creatures appearing here; how could she miss such an opportunity with the target likely in sight?
Whoosh!
After a brief standoff, the mutant creatures in the fog initiated the attack!
A slimy tentacle shot out like lightning from the billowing fog, attacking everyone.
“Cross Ice Feather Blade!”
Emperor Penguin’s flippers crossed to extrude long ice blades, the misty ice fog swirling around them as they slashed at the tentacle.
Bang!
The moment it contacted the Cross Ice Feather Blade, it shattered bit by bit, and before it could react, the slimy tentacle twisted around its flippers and tightly entangled its large body.
“Ga!”
The thick tentacle tightened instantly, and the Emperor Penguin let out a painful shriek amidst the sounds of bones cracking, its body uncontrollably dragged by the tentacle.
“Emperor Penguin!”
In Cang Haiyuan’s pupils, a blue luminescence flickered, his hands enveloped in sharp ice spurs, he grabbed at the tentacle.
But his speed was no match for the tentacle, and he could only watch helplessly as Emperor Penguin was dragged away.
“Slice!”
Clang!
A crisp sound of a blade rang out, and the tentacle suddenly trembled and fell limply to the ground.
“What… what is that thing!”
The terrified crew members trembled as they looked outside.
The fog at the entrance of the hangar rapidly dispersed for a short distance, revealing a figure with flaming wings on its back, silently hovering above the deck, holding a red katana in his hand, his body entangled with blazing flames.
The wings of fire slowly fluttered as he gently landed on the deck.
The figure turned around, the golden-red vertical pupils in his eyes dancing with flame shadows.
“Shao… Shao Zifeng,” Cang Haiyuan exclaimed with joy, holding the Emperor Penguin.
Shao Zifeng nodded, sheathed the katana, and looked up at the thick fog.
“Grr~”
At that moment, a deep growl came from within the fog, and the Xuelong began to shake violently.
The churning fog extended several tentacle-like appendages full of eyes toward Shao Zifeng, entangling him like snakes.
His golden-red vertical pupils narrowed to slits, and the wings of fire behind him detached and exploded into intense heat in mid-air.
“Roar!!”
…
Outside the thick fog, fierce cold winds lifted huge waves, and occasional lightning streaked across the dark clouds.
Five Fire Phoenix Pheasants continuously circled in midair, dropping blast bombs into the fog, but to little effect.
“Boss!”
The voice over the radio was distorted by the howling wind, “I’ll try once more!”

Just then, a Fire Phoenix Pheasant suddenly closed its wings, dragging its long tail feathers as it dived into the rolling fog.
“Ma Kai, Zhao Li, get ready to provide cover!”
“Yes!”
In the dark night sky, a red light like a sharp sword pierced the fog, and just as it was about to reach, a thick tentacle lashed out from the rolling mist toward it.
“Blast bomb!”
Boom boom boom!
Just as the tentacle was about to strike the Fire Phoenix Pheasant, four bursts of fiery light exploded on the tentacle, blasting deep pits into it, and green liquid mixed with chunks of flesh tumbled into the sea!
“Grr!!”
The growl came from within the fog again as it churned and lashed out with two more tentacles.
“Tong Hao, come back!” the Fire Phoenix army commander shouted through the radio.
“Crack!”
Below, the Fire Phoenix Pheasant beneath Tong Hao flapped its wings and stabilized itself in the violent winds, narrowly avoiding the tentacle’s attack.
“Damn, what the heck is this thing; its defenses are too solid!”
Tong Hao’s complaint came over the radio as the commander looked down at the fog below, “Don’t worry, the escort fleet is still a few dozen nautical miles away, it’ll only take just over two hours to reach us at full speed.”
“Guys, for these two hours our main task is to harass it, keep it too busy to attack the Xuelong!”
“Yes!”
“Grr!”
At that moment, the fog below violently trembled, a patch of it turning a bloody red as if something was about to break through.
“Shit, didn’t they say to keep Professor Chen safe; why is there another one!”
As the words fell, a black and red Fiery Breath burst through the fog, a spinning column of fire shooting straight into the sky, strikingly visible against the gloomy sea and sky.
Moments later, the pillar of fire disappeared, but the breached fog did not close up again.
No!
It would be more accurate to say it closed very slowly, with countless dark red fire energy continuously resisting the closing of the fog at its hollow edges.
“What is this!”
Seeing this, the Commander’s face lit up with joy. From the previous battle, he could sense that the mutant creatures in the fog were not very strong, barely level six at most.
The reason they had not been able to make headway was that any attack would be diminished by this damned fog; once the fog no longer hindered them, the things hiding inside would be nothing to fear!
“Boss, quick, look!”
The lightning roaming through the dark clouds lit up the night sky, just to reveal the cloud of fog bulging below, with the explosive fire element rapidly condensing beneath the heavy fog.
“Roar!”
Accompanied by a roar that shook Heaven and Earth, the bulging fog suddenly burst, with countless fireballs mixed with shattered limbs splashing around and raining into the dark seawater below.
The wild fire element lit up the entire sea area, and even the cold gale seemed to stall momentarily.
“B-b-b-b-b-boss, a dragon… it’s a dragon!” Ma Kai’s excited voice came through the intercom, the breathing of the others also grew heavy. This was a dragon!
The kind every boy wishes to ride!
The great dragon, flapping its wings of flame, burst through the dense fog, with the dispersed fog clinging to its wings, drawing two striking white trails of vapor.
“What an outrage!”
Things in the fog grew increasingly furious, tendrils reaching out and shooting straight for Qiuqiu in mid-air.
Qiuqiu spread its wings, weaving back and forth among a dozen tendrils, a touch of amusement in its gaze.
Its wings beat furiously, accelerating sharply!
A massive sound of tearing air erupted as a layer of shockwave clouds rose around Qiuqiu!
This time it did not dodge deliberately, its wings slashed through the straight tendrils like blades, leaving clear trails of water vapor in its wake.
“What an outrage!”
Sounds of extreme pain came from the fog, as numerous tendrils broke off one by one, falling into the sea amid wafts of a meaty aroma.
With so many tendrils lost at once, the fog began to contract, and Shao Zifeng gently patted Qiuqiu’s neck.
“Roar!”
Frighteningly, Qiuqiu flapped its wings, tracing a perfect semicircle in mid-air, then dove back into the fog with its wings tucked.
“Rumble!”
The churning contracting fog halted and soon swelled, resulting in a violent explosion. The massive noise echoed far over the sea.
Large chunks of limbs mixed with green fluid plunged into the seawater.
“What an outrage!”
After suffering multiple impacts, the thing hidden in the fog voiced its exceptional pain, the cloud of fog thinning rapidly, with the brightly lit Xuelong visible amidst the fog.
“Thinking of running?”
Shao Zifeng stopped Qiuqiu, who wanted to attack again, as they quietly hovered in mid-air, flames flickering in his pupils, his fingers clutching Cangfang trembling slightly with excitement.
This battle had made him realize that his coordination with Qiuqiu had become even more harmonious.
Humans seldom had a hand in battles against high-level mutant creatures, not to mention reaction speed. Human dynamic vision struggled to track their movements.
But he was different. Because of empathy, he almost shared a state with Qiuqiu during battles. With Qiuqiu’s dynamic vision to track movements, any tactical action he came up with appeared in his mind, and Qiuqiu could perform it perfectly.
It felt as if…
they were one with the dragon?
The fog was getting thinner and thinner until only a thin layer remained, rapidly moving toward the west above the sea.
Shao Zifeng, seated astride Qiuqiu, was not in a rush, staying far behind in the thin mist.
More than ten minutes later, he turned to check the distance to the Snow Dragon and patted its neck, “Qiuqiu!”
“Roar!”
The firelight scattered in Qiuqiu’s eyes, its Scale Armor opening up with magma-like fire elements flowing between the armor’s gaps. Four huge fireballs condensed in front of it.
Excitement was visible on Shao Zifeng’s face, “Purgatory Explosion!”
Boom!
Chen Yixin stood in the observation deck at the top of the Snow Dragon, and saw a giant mushroom cloud rising from the sea in the distance.
Giant waves, tens of meters high, crazily devoured everything around!
…
Two hours later, the brightly lit Snow Dragon was accompanied by three majestic warships nearby.
In the night, a comprehensive support ship provided assistance to the Snow Dragon.
The injured were quickly transported to the operating room of the comprehensive support ship, where the military’s most advanced medical equipment and doctors were available, and a large number of soldiers were helping to clean up the deck and repair the damaged roll-up doors.
“Professor Chen!”
A middle-aged naval officer, wearing a white wide-brimmed hat and dark blue navy uniform, saluted Chen Yixin, “I don’t know what you need me for.”
With a hint of excitement on her wan face, Chen Yixin pointed to a huge tentacle on the deck and asked, “Major Lu, have you encountered this during your previous escort missions?”
Navy Major Lu Ze looked at the huge tentacle on the deck and his face showed hesitation, “Half a year ago, we saw a fog mass from a distance once. By the time we reached it, the fog had already dissipated. I don’t know…”
“That’s it,” Chen Yixin said and then ignored Lu Ze, squatting next to the half-human-high tentacle.
“I’ve seen it several times in a military report before, saying that unknown mutant creatures have appeared in the Liaodong sea area, exhibiting abilities analogous to a kind of atavism…”
At that point, Chen Yixin suddenly stopped talking, focusing on studying the structure of the tentacle.
From the structure of the tentacle, it was very similar to that of an octopus.
The difference was that, rather than the suction cups which enable an octopus to easily adhere, underneath this giant tentacle were huge eyeballs.
Shao Zifeng stood beside her, his eyes also filled with curiosity.
During the battle yesterday, because the main body of this thing had remained concealed in the fog, he had not been able to identify its specific information.
In the final pursuit, Shao Zifeng initially wanted to capture it to see what it was, but it ultimately escaped.
Looking at the shape of the eyeball.
Shao Zifeng remembered the crazy spinning speed it had when it first appeared yesterday. That spinning speed, he had only encountered it before with the Split-eyed Demon Spider.
However, when identifying the Split-eyed series of mutant creatures, the margins of the identification would show an unsettling purple-red color, which this mutant creature did not have.
He hesitated for a moment, then spoke up, “Sister Chen, do you think this thing could be related to the Holy Origin Society?”
The moment he spoke, both Chen Yixin and Lu Ze were startled.
If this creature was related to the Holy Origin Society, it meant that it was not a natural evolution. Given that Chen Yixin’s main subject of interest was ancient biology with a focus on atavistic evolution, it meant this trip was in vain.
For Lu Ze, guarding the maritime frontier was their duty; if even the mutant creatures in the sea were controlled by the Holy Origin Society, it would be very bad news for Daxia.
Thinking about this, Lu Ze hurriedly said, “Professor Chen, what the young man said is not impossible. I need to report this; please excuse me.”
“By the way, I will be taking some parts of these tentacles.” With that, Lu Ze hurriedly left.
Chen Yixin reluctantly inspected the tentacle on the deck, but the more she looked, the more it resembled something the Holy Origin Society would concoct. Frustrated, she kicked the tentacle.
Turning her head, she glared at Shao Zifeng and muttered, “What a letdown!”
